Enter the no-TV-zone that lets you watch what
you want when you want in just two clicks with iflix, country's biggest library
of video on demand content to partner with the country’s biggest multimedia
networks PLDT HOME and Smart.
The Philippine launch of iflix comes at
spot-on timing since it recently secured topline content deals with giant
Hollywood studios The Walt Disney Company, Twentieth Century Fox Television
Distribution (Fox), BBC Worldwide (BBC) and Warner Bros. International
Television Distribution (Warner Bros.).
This means that on top of existing over
11,000 hours of TV serial titles and updated catalogue of Hollywood, European
and Asian releases, shows like “Sherlock”, “Doctor Who”,
“Homeland” and “The Big Bang Theory” are now part of iflix’s growing
library.
For movies, iflix beefs up its Hollywood
selection with action blockbusters like “Star Trek”, “Batman Begins” and “Green
Lantern”, among thousands of other choices.
PLDT HOME and Smart welcome the addition of iflix
as part of its ever-expanding entertainment ensemble. “This is literally
entertainment everywhere. With all of these titles bannered under PLDT HOME and
Smart’s power-packed lineup of reliable Internet services for families and
individuals, your choice of entertainment device deserves its own star at the
Hollywood Walk of Fame,” rationalized PLDT EVP and Consumer Business Group Head
Ariel P. Fermin.

“You already have the device that has the
capability to showcase your guilty viewing pleasures—whether it’s a smartphone,
a tablet, laptop, desktop computers and even TV screens. All you need is that
one movie, that particular episode or even an entire season that you’ve had on
your must-watch list. From small escapes like whenever you’re stuck in traffic,
to binge-watching rare moments when time is on your side, subscribers now have
the access to the widest library of entertainment content with iflix. It gets
so much better because you are able to gain access to these titles through PLDT
HOME and Smart’s strongest and largest multimedia platforms wherever you are in
the Philippines,” explained Fermin.
